Can I have a Reflexology , Thai Foot Massage, Oriental Face Massage or Indian Head Massage treatment if I am pregnant?
It is recommended that you avoid treatment during the first trimester of pregnancy, (the first 12 weeks). If planning to have a treatment after the first 12 weeks, then it is worthwhile talking to your midwife or health care professional to see if there is any reason why it would be unadvisable in your particular case. There are many benefits to having treatments during pregnancy. Reflexology can help with back pain, constipation, heartburn, water retention and fatigue. Indian Head Massage is enjoyed by many pregnant women as it is very relaxing, and they find the sitting position very comfortable as opposed to therapies where you need to lie flat.
